Traitor and Concubine Quan

The thunderstorm was in full swing, and in the hazy rain, a man was walking towards the Jade Palace with a human-shaped object on his back.In the night, her face was completely covered in the shadow of the brim of the cloak, and the rain kept hitting her body, splashing and blooming.The rain seemed to be washing away something vigorously, and each hit was very heavy.

The guards in front of the Yuwang Mansion saw such a person, and immediately became vigilant. Before asking who was coming, they heard the strange person say in a dignified manner, "I want to see your lord, and I have a big gift for him. Tell him, I came down from a lonely mountain."

The guards were not without brains either, so after hearing this, they ran to report to the inside.

The other people were looking at this person, but they found that this person had been standing in the rain, motionless.They also had no way of identifying the person from his attire.

Soon, a person came out from the Jade King's Mansion. This person was Jin Shengxuan, a counselor who had been in the mansion for a long time and hadn't left.

When Jin Shengxuan saw the person at the door, he felt extremely strange, and thought: It really is him, why did he come here?Could it be that he knew about Yu Wang and others conspiring to assassinate him?But now he is the only one who specially came to the Jade King's mansion, no matter what, it doesn't look like he is asking the Jade King to settle accounts.

So he turned sideways and invited the person at the door.

In the corridor, I saw that his body was covered with dirt and grass, and the meticulously combed hair was also wet from the rain. When I stretched out my hand, I could vaguely see the scratches on the sleeve.

It can be seen that he was indeed assassinated, but he did not choose to return to Lin's mansion, but went to Yuwang's mansion overnight.

This made Jin Shengxuan immediately unable to understand the thoughts of the traitor Lin Pin.

When they arrived at the living room, the Jade King was already waiting there. When he saw Lin Pin, he pretended to be concerned and asked, "Lord Lin, what happened to you? Why did you get hurt? Do you need my help when you come to find me? "

Lin Pin smiled coldly and untied his cloak.He put down the Buddha seat on his back, and then brushed off the rainwater from his bun. Although his body was in a state of distress, his face was still as elegant and handsome as before.

"His Royal Highness, do you still remember that I once said that I would send you a generous gift to prove my determination?" She pointed at the golden Buddha statue and said, "This is what I specially sent Gift, you know, I just came down from the Lonely Mountain, and the Lonely Mountain is the first place to hide treasure, and this Buddha statue is that treasure."

Hearing this, Jin Shengxuan approached the Buddha statue and looked at it for self-study, his brows were deeply furrowed.He knew very well that he went to the side of the Buddha statue and tapped it with his fingers.

The Jade King kept looking at Jin Shengxuan's eyes. He was slightly disappointed at this tall Buddha statue, but he still thought that there might be some mystery. Seeing Jin Shengxuan shaking his head at him, he knew in his heart that this Buddha statue was not a peerless treasure at all.Lin Pin's intentions for coming here at this time became more and more unclear.

"Lord Lin, since this Buddha statue came down from a lonely mountain, it must be dedicated to the emperor. How could you take it to my palace without authorization? Or did you come across robbers on the way and turned to this king in desperation? If so, I will send someone to send you back to the mansion, and I will definitely protect your safety."

The Jade King thought to himself: It's a pity that the people sent there failed to take Lin Pin's life.Now that Lin Pin has shown his face in my residence, if there is a mistake on the way, I will definitely blame it on the king, so Lin Pin must go back to the residence safely tonight.

Lin Pin asked, "Does the lord think that this item does not look like a rare treasure, so he thinks that I am not sincerely surrendering?" She smiled and said mockingly, "Your lord, you can see clearly."

As she spoke, she walked to the edge of the Golden Buddha, and under the watchful eyes of Jade King and Jin Shengxuan, she poured the Buddha statue on the ground, only to see that there was a faint small circular trace under the base of the Golden Buddha.Lin Pin swiped his dagger vigorously at the circular mark on the base, and heard a "click" after two or three strokes.

Jade King and Jin Shengxuan were stunned for an instant.

Lin Pin said, "Bring a wooden basin and a hammer."

The Jade King asked Jin Shengxuan to go in person, and by the way he also ordered the people in the mansion not to reveal what happened tonight, otherwise they would be killed without mercy.

When Jin Shengxuan came back, he brought a huge wooden basin and a hammer.

Lin Pin stood beside the fallen Buddha statue with his hands behind his back and said, "My lord's judgment is correct, this Buddha statue is indeed worthless, but those monks on the lonely mountain are desperately protecting this thing, which shows that there is value in it that we haven't discovered yet. The location. Later I found out that the Buddha statue was actually empty, so there is a possibility that the Buddha statue is just a container, and the real treasure is in this humble Buddha statue!"

"You move this Buddha statue into a wooden basin." Lin Pin ordered Jin Shengxuan.

Jin Shengxuan didn't even resist, so he used his strength and put the Buddha statue in the wooden basin.Lin Pin raised the hammer high, and hit the head of the Buddha statue vigorously——

"Om-"

Most of the Buddha statue was shattered in an instant.

Although Jade King and Jin Shengxuan had already made preparations, they were still amazed by the scene before them.

It turns out that there are countless transparent and bright crystal stones hidden inside this Buddha statue!This crystal stone is extremely hard and extremely rare. In the huge Jin Dynasty, there were only a dozen of them from the beginning to the end. Now it is in the palace, and it is a treasure worth thousands of gold.

But now inside this unremarkable Buddha statue, there are actually no less than a hundred of them, and they are uniform in color and average in size.

This is indeed an overwhelming wealth, a priceless treasure!

Jade King and Jin Shengxuan were stunned for a long time, Lin Pin laughed a few times, threw the hammer on the ground, and let out a loud "Keng--", which brought them back to their senses.

Lin Pin said, "These are my meeting gifts, I wonder if the prince is satisfied?"

Yu Wang said, "Brother Huang told you the location of the treasure, but you gave the treasure to me. How will you explain it when you go back?"

Lin Pin said calmly, "I ran into robbers on the road and was seriously injured, and the treasure was also missing."

The Jade King was stunned for a moment, and said, "These things can't be left in my palace."

If Lin Pin turned around and told the emperor, wouldn't he have put all the blame on himself?Although he is the younger brother of the emperor, the emperor is not stupid and knows the movements of the government and the opposition in recent years.He has long been afraid of himself, monitoring his every move, if there are more of these things in the mansion for no reason, wouldn't it be just for him to catch him?

The more Jade King thought about it, the more flustered he became, "Lin Pin, don't make such a joke again! This king is loyal, and I will not keep these things in the mansion!"

Lin Pin laughed a few times, squinted his eyes and smiled, "His Royal Highness Jade King doesn't even have the guts, I misjudged you."

King Jade held his breath in his heart. It is indeed disturbing that a dignified man lives such a life that is not as good as a pig or a dog.

Lin Pin said, "If I want to harm you, why bother to deliver the things to your house? Why expose the treasure hidden in the Buddha statue in front of you? If I want you to relax your vigilance, why not just leave the complete Buddha statue behind?" That's it, why do you have to?"

Jin Shengxuan said in a low voice, "Lin Pin's words are true. If you want to blame the prince, you can just put the Buddha statue and leave. This Buddha statue is worthless. What is valuable is what is hidden inside."

King Yu nodded.

Lin Pin continued, "The Buddha statue is left in the prince's mansion. As I said, this is just a gift for me to meet. Now the daughter of the Yuan family is by my side. If there is news of the treasure in the future, I will tell the prince in time. This The treasure of the whole country is the sincerity of my cooperation with the prince."

After finishing speaking, Lin Pin put on his wet cloak and hat again, and walked out of the palace.

The Jade King watched him disappear into the rain, and was absent-minded for a while.

"Could it be that the treacherous official Lin Pin sometimes fell in love with him?"

Jin Shengxuan thought of Ruan Xixi, that face, every frown and smile made people linger, and he was like this, let alone Lin Pin who had been with Ruan Xixi for a long time?

All mortals will fall in love with Ruan Xixi.

So he said, "My lord, if we have Lin Pin's help, our strength above the court will be greatly increased."

King Yu turned his head to look at him, "You mean—this king can cooperate with him?"

Jin Shengxuan said, "We can temporarily use Lin Pin's method to open up some joints, but people can't be convinced of this, and we need to guard against it."

Jade King nodded slowly, "Well, that's it for now."

Lin Pin didn't go back to his home, but went to live in a private house that had already been arranged properly.The people here have already moved out, and the neighbors are not the masters of good things, so it is more convenient to act.

When I came to the room, I took off my wet coat, and there was a bucket of steaming water there.Lin Pin stood in a daze at the door, and said to the air, "You are too dangerous. The imperial palace is no better than my Lin Mansion. There are [-] imperial guards inside, and [-] city guards outside. In vain."

The surrounding area was very quiet, as if no one had ever existed.

Others might feel that they are suspicious, there is indeed no one here, but Lin Pin is sure that Ruan Xixi is here.

Lin Pin sighed, and said helplessly, "I'm not blaming you, I'm glad you could come out and meet me, but..."

Before Lin Pin finished speaking, he felt a breeze blowing in his ears, and then wrapped his hands around her neck from behind. Ruan Xixi stood quietly behind her, hugged her neck, and exhaled lightly Said, "How do you know I'm here? Doesn't it mean that the scent from the past has dissipated?"

The corners of Lin Pin's mouth curled up. As soon as he was sure that she was really here, he felt that all the complicated things disappeared.She raised her hand to caress Ruan Xixi's arm, and said softly, "The fragrance is indeed gone, but only you can sprinkle healing medicine in it while putting the hot water in. The people I hired would not be so careful , they didn't know I was going to get hurt."

Ruan Xixi said regretfully, "So it turns out that Fox Lin is really a fox." She paused, and then whispered softly in Lin Pin's ear, "I miss you..."
